Picturesque japanese Customs.

The sword is held in special veneration
by the japanese OF all classes. 1t sym
bOliZes the divine authority of the
Mikado, the loyalty and martial pride of
the warrior; and japanese writers speak
of it in glowing terms as the 'previOus
possession of lord and vassal from times
older than the divine period" or as the
living soul of the samurai " Many
treatIses have been written on this theme.
the art of determining the maker and
date of sword blade being one of great
research and labor. Those made before
1903, a. D., are called old swords; those
made since, new swords; and the former
was long, straight, dOuble-edged weap-
on called the ken. the latter katana.
single-edged and slightly curved toward
the point. A short sword or dirk, called
the wakizashi, was worn with the katana
as a sign Of gentle birth or military in
heritance. Members of the fourth or
fifth rank in the Empire wore a short
dirk without a guard, which doctors and
artists were also required to carry, and
stiettos foot long were a part of an
officers and nObemans dress. Others
could be mentioned, but these will suffice
to show their important character among
a people who inscribe such sentiments as
the following upon their blades: I'm
ones last days, ones sword becomes the
wealth of ones posterity;" and, Ones
fate is in the hands of Heaven, but
skillful fighter does not meet with death.
ea-drinking and dancing are init
mately associated in Japan, and both are
carried to high degree of artistic per-
lection. The tea-houses are to Yoko-
hama what the Boulevard cafes are to
Paris. The mattresses are graceful girls,
who move about with nOiseless tread,
serving fragrant tea in dainty cups, with
slices of sweet cake; and entertainment
is furnished by fair dancers in siIken
robes, who move sinuously to the'bizarre
strains of the koto, the kogu, and the
samisen. These native dances are
species of acted charades each having a
central motive or idea to illustrate. This
gives rise to an infinite variety of pleasing
motions and tableauX. There are parasol-
dances, fan-dances, flower charades, IL
Illustrations of the seasons, and many
more Frank LesIie's.

amount of cutting and trimming, and OF
ten renew themselves when nearly dead.
If the branches be too thick it will be of
advantage to cut some Of them out from
q few vines where a limited amount OF
early fruit shall be desired
Store beets, carrots parsnips and
turnips in bins In the cellar and pack
them in dry sand or earth and they will
keep well for winter use. This method
will enable the farmer to use them at
any time, which will not be the case If
they be stored in mounds in the open
air
Hogs kept in confinement will eat
charcoal or even bituminous coal with
relish, and they are also fond Of rotten
wood, these substances seeming to fur
nish a desired, if not necessary, cOndi-
ment or appetizer. Charred corn once
a week is welcome variation in the fare
of SWINE
Sassafras is a nuisance in any field, but
it cannot be destroyed very easily except
by grubbing it out, removing all the
roots. Being a hardy and persistent
plant it must be killed in its younger
stages If allo we'd to Overrun a field it
will entail nearly as much labor as is
required to clear new land from brush.
An observing writer remarks that
farmers may naturally be divided into
three classes: /. Those who grow crops
below the average, and whose lives are a
struggle with poverty. 2. Those who
grow average crops and make a living by
close economy. 3. Those whose crops
are always above the average, and who
are prosperous.
Those making use of driven wells
should remember that the patent expired
two years ago, and that the wells put
down since then are free of any royalty;
also, that the right of any person claiming
to act as agent of the patentee should be
clearly established before money is paid
him. 1t is a good rule in all such cases
to 90 slow and act with neighbors.

BaId-HeadodnpSS.

There is much wearisOme and needless
discussion about ald~headed American
men. Wash your head thoroughly once
a week with a lather of soap and water,
rinse all the soap out, and rub the scalp
lively till it is entirely dry. Never wear
an unventilated hat, or any hat at all
wher you can avoid it. Wear straw hat,
instead of felt, whenever possible. Give
your scalp plenty of sunlight, also plenty
of air. Don't smoke too mnch. Follow
these directions, and you never will be
bald headed. Even if your hair has be-
gun to get thin, it will revive. Canadians
are bald because they wear fur caps. 1t
is the wearing of hot and unnatural head
coverings that makes the hair fall out. If
a quite bald man should 90 bareheaded
in the sun and air year, it is likely that
his hair would come in again, and he
would never take cold. Remember this ::
Nature meant your hair to keep your head
warm, not for caps or felt hats. Felt
hats and silk hats are an abOminatiOn.
These are the wretches that make Ameri
can men bald headed. 1t is not their
mighty intellects or their excessively fine
nervous systems. If you render the hair
superfuous by making hats do its duty for
it. nature takes it away ; she will not toll
crate senseless things CultiratOr.

Farm and Garden Notes.

1t is a mistake to suppose that sour,
fermented slop for hogs is better than Il
fresh mixture that is sweet and clean.
Professor Stewart reports the feeding
of 104 COWS on an acre of corn in the
milk and it gave them full feed for four
days, equal to 416 days for one COW.
If il. "a very fat condition the chances
are that the hen will show an inclination
to set. Even the so-called non settlers
on becoming fat will attempt to hatch
brood
When the leaves of plants assume a
yellow tinge the application of fifty
pounds nitrate of soda (saltpetre) will
often cause them to again become green
and thrifty.
A poulterer says: Wewould never at
tempt to keep a flock of chickens
through the winter without plenty of
dry earth for a dust bath. The best
time to store it is when it is dry.
a farmer writes that he considers
COW three-quarters Jersey and one-quar-
ter corn meal about as good for butter
as any he can find. He has a small herd
of such COWS whose butter sells at a
handsome advance over the average
price.
The dairy COW may be regarded as a
machine for transforming the food which
she receives into milk, butter and cheese
She has no power, however, to produce
something out of nothing. The best she
can do is to perform her work econom-
ically.
Farmers will find it to their advantage
to corn mutton in weak brine for home
consumption. The hams can be smoked
and used like dried beef, or they can be
boiled. The corned mutton will be
found an agreeable change from sausage
and spare ribs.
Tomato vines will endure quite an

AGRICULTURAL.
TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN.
Best Time for Harvesting Crops.


In harvesting, important principles are
involved While we allow root crops to
grow as long as they can, and harvest
them before frost damages them, grains,
wheat. barley, oats, etc, need TO be cut
before perfectly ripe, if we would secure
the largest amount of starch in the ker-
mel which improves the quality Of the
flour, the value for mailing, etc, while
at the same time, the straw IS better for
feeding. Indian corn IS quite sensitive
to frost Sorghum should be cut when
the grain is fully ripe to secure also the
largest quantity of sugar in the stalk.
Grass when cut before it is in blossom
is munitions, and dries out greatly in
making hay When cut in full blossom,
or when just out of blossom, it is in tull
flavor, in its highest degree of nutritious
value and loses far less in drying. When
cut after the seed has formed, much of
the foliage will have turned brown and
dried, the stems will be woody, and,
though it dries with paratively little
loss of weight, yet it is far less relished
by cattle, and is less nutritious, while in
very few grasses does the seed make good
the damage to the rest of the plant. The
same general principles apply to clover
and other forage crops. Thus corn for
ensiloing or for drying for coarse fodder
should be cut up after the ears are well
formed, and before they are fully ripe,
for then the stalk is richer in sugar, has
more foliage, and less woody fiber. -
